Meet Your Found Family


Bakuretsu Con is Vermont’s original anime and video game convention. We’ve been partying since 2001 and we’re not stopping now (yes, we did stop briefly for the pandemic but we’re back).

At Bakuretsu Con you’ll meet new friends, see incredible artists, and discover new fandoms. Baku is a big, crazy family, and you’re gonna fit right in. We promise.

Leave the “real world” at the door and join us in feudal Japan or outer space or another world where you’re a slime. You belong here.

Who Needs Reality?

It’s Been A Long Road to 2023

When we announced a haitus back in 2020, we – like many – thought it would only be for one year. By the time autumn of 2021 rolled around, it wasn’t clear if we could safely hold Bakuretsu Con, despite the strides we’d made as a state and a country in containing the COVID-19 pandemic. And then, by 2022, well – it had been years since the last Baku! Would there ever be another?

Yes.

We’re Vermont’s original anime & gaming convention and we’re not going away. Sure, it’s been a couple years. You’re so much taller now! We can’t wait to see you again. Maybe you’d even like to join us as a staff member…?
